Students Call For An End To Stop And Frisk
By Ricky Casiano
Student activists spoke out against the NYPD's Stop and Frisk policy in front of Westinghouse High School in Downtown Brooklyn on Wednesday, May 23, during a rally to drum up support of a major protest planned against the controversial policy.
Stop and frisk is a practice that allows officers to use their discretion to stop people they deem suspicious and search them. Opponents say stop and frisk unfairly targets minority residents.
"As a black Latino, I have been criminalized while walking to school, going to the bodega, via stop and frisk," said Emmanuel Pardilla, a college student at Fordham University. "It is a crime. It angers me because I am the one trying to make my community a better place. Join us on the march to end stop and frisk."
The upcoming protest, a planned 100,000-strong silent march on Father's Day, June 17, will be led by the NAACP, the Nation Action Network, New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), and the 1199 Service Employees International Union, among others.
Participants will march silently, dressed in their formal, Sunday's best clothing, to Mayor Michael Bloomberg's residence in Manhattan to call for an end to stop and frisk. They charge that not only does the policy discriminates against minorities, but it is ineffective at taking guns of the streets, which is a major aim of stop and frisk.
In response, Bloomberg has defended the policy. He said critics have offered no real answer to the gun violence problem in the city.
Recently, the Justice Department filed a federal lawsuit against stop and frisk that was later changed into a class-action lawsuit.
Under recent media scrutiny, Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly announced some changes to stop and frisk. He offered to increase reporting of incidents, provide more video training to officers on how to properly use stop and frisk, and include the community in the department's efforts.
According to data from the NYPD and reported by the New York Civil Liberties Union, Brooklyn had the most incidents of stop and frisks in 2011.
East New York's 75th Precinct was the top precinct with 31,100 stops; the 73rd Precinct in Brownsville followed with 25,167 stops; and Williamsburg's 90th Precinct rounded out the top 5 with 17,566 stop.
In Queens, the 115th Precinct in Jackson Heights was among the top precincts in the city, with 18,156 stops. The NYPD stopped a total of 685,724 people in 2011.
But it's the racial breakdown of those stops that has critics alarmed.
Black and Latino New Yorkers accounted for almost 90 percent of those stopped, according to NYCLU. And, says the group, young people were also disproportionately targets, with nearly half of those stopped being between the ages of 14 and 24.
At the rally, youths and students from activist groups such as New York Communities for Change, Make the Road NY and Occupy the Hood, expressed their grievances with stop and frisk.
"What if I have a baby boy? I am afraid to have a son," said protester Crystal David of the Southeast Queens County Young Democrats. "The people that are supposed to protect us are putting us in cages. It should not be a crime to walk being black or Latino."

When you think about localizing your app, you immediately think of translating the content from the app itself. While this is right, metadata and keywords localization is crucial for people to discover your app.
Complete app localization will also involve optimizing content for app stores, such as descriptions and images. In short, app store optimization for localized apps is like SEO for translated websites.
Users won't download even wonderfully localized app if the app store descriptions and metadata are not localized into their native language. That's the first impression rule! How to handle app store optimization for your localized app then? Let's crack it, from A to Z!
You may decide to localize your app into one of the most popular languages like Spanish, French or Chinese. While this can make sense at first, it won't guarantee your app a spectacular success in these target markets. Therefore, you need to make calculated decisions based on research and analytics. Take a look at this article to find out how to do pre-localization research.
The best practice is to analyze your app's traffic sources and demographics. In this way, you can see where your app is already popular. Localizing and fine-tuning will help you expand to the markets you are already present in.
When you know which market you are targeting, it's time for action. Localizing your app can be time-consuming as well as resource-hungry, but keep in mind that if done right, it will eventually pay off. Here's the ultimate guide to app localization that will help you plan the whole process.
Translating your app's name correctly will help users of the target market understand the functionality of your app first time they see it in the app store. While branding and identity are important and it's not always recommended to change it, remember that visibility and appeal to the local audiences are crucial. You won't build a brand with no users!
We advise localizing your app store metadata into as many languages as you can, based on the analytics of your traffic sources. Localized metadata will increase app discoverability and downloads within new regions and countries. Choose the keywords carefully in order to keep your app at the top of the app store's search results.
Nothing may be more important than the visual representation of your app. Pictures and screenshots will always draw most of the attention when users are deciding whether to download an app or not.
The images and screenshots of your app should be localized and targeted to the user's native language as well. This process usually includes making new screenshots of the localized version and adjusting images and design of introductory images to fit the target market.
Do you have more questions about app store optimization for your localized app? Maybe you struggle with app localization itself? Feel free to reach out to us – we will gladly help you in dealing with the process!


Landlords will welcome the news that buy-to-let mortgage rates are falling as lenders compete against each other to have the cheapest rates.
According to fresh figures from Mortgage Brain, there have been further rate and cost reductions on most mainstream buy-to-let products over the past three months.
From example, the mortgage technology provider's data reveals that the cost of a two-year fixed buy-to-let purchase product for both 60% and 70% loan to value (LTV) is now 4% less than it was in May 2017, which equates to a saving of £342 for a 60% LTV mortgage and £306 for a 70% LTV mortgage, while 60% and 70% two-year trackers are down 1% and 2% respectively over the past three months.
Many longer-term deals are also now cheaper, with three- and five-year fixes at 60% and five-year fixes at 80% LTV having fallen by 3%.
Mark Lofthouse, chief executive of Mortgage Brain, said: "Despite the forthcoming changes to buy-to-let lending, the outlook for investors at the moment is extremely favourable with buy-to-let mortgage costs coming down yet again.

Which would U choose for raising tween ?Small 1 Br Apt in Park Slope Brooklyn NY, Or Apt in suburbs of PA 1,100 sq ft?
If you are happy where you are why move?
My tween wouldn't have a say in the matter. They would live where I wanted to live and be happy with it! That said, given a choice I would never purposely get a 1 bedroom for a parent and child, that's just rediculous.
They don't HAVE to be happy about it.
They can DEAL with it but you can't force emotions to be there if its not how you feel.
I have never known a tween who cared a whit about where they lived as long as it was safe and if they had a loving parent with them. At least not to the point of being "happy" or "unhappy" and not just "oh that would be cool" stuff. Househunting and lifestyle choosing isn't usually left to the young.

Even at its typical size, the muffaletta is an impressively large sandwich. Cut just one into quarters, and one you can usually feed four, easy. But if you're having a bunch of people over for Mardi Gras (or any other excuse you come up with), you're gonna need a bigger muffaletta.
"Like most sandwiches, a great muffaletta starts with great bread," says Shane Feirstein, who manages the Brooklyn bar, Achilles Heel owned by restaurateur Andrew Tarlow, serves a beloved version of the New Orleans sandwich. "Usually, it is served on a round Italian sesame loaf, but we use a round sesame pizza bianca from She Wolf Bakery. It's made with a little olive oil, which makes the crust incredible. But any sesame seed Italian style sandwich bread will work." One thing that won't? The typical crusty French baguette, which is too crusty (and skinny).
No need to track down an extra-long loaf of bread. Instead, just buy as many normal-sized Italian loaves as you need, and cut off the ends so that you can link them together like cars on a train. A good rule of thumb: One foot of sandwich will feed 2 to 3 people (depending on how hungry your crew is).
At Achilles Heel, Feirstein uses four kinds of meat in his muffaletta: Cooked ham, mortadella, spicy Calabrese salami, and Genoa-style salami. He also layers on two cheeses: The classic aged provolone, and slabs of fresh milky fresh mozzarella, which helps balance out the richer flavors.
Feirstein uses two pounds of meat and one pound of cheese per foot of sandwich, but if your bread isn't as wide as the focaccia-style bread he uses, you might want to scale down to one and a half pounds of meat and three quarters pound of cheese per foot.
Traditionally, muffalettas get their punch from a salty, tangy olive spread called giardiniera, which combines the Italian pickled vegetables with plenty of chopped green olives. For an easy at-home version, Feirstein suggests combining store-bought drained giardiniera with "the best pimento-stuffed olives you can find," then chopping the mixture and dressing it with olive oil, red-wine vinegar, dried oregano, red-pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. If you have time, make the olive salad a day in advance, and your jumbo-sized sandwich will pack even bigger flavors.


Diy solar power ... a potential saving-wise consideration in your arsenal of money saving tips for frugal living.
Home solar power systems and cheap solar panels are one of the many saving tips worth investigating.
You'll be doing your bit by "going green for life" and you'll be investing in a savings plan.
How much sunlight do you effectively get from day-to-day and season to season?
Sustained overcast conditions and extremely cold temperature will not be conducive to home solar power systems.
Choose a solar heater that will fulfill the daily consumption that your family or business requires.
A rough guideline would be 50-60 liters (about 15 gallons) per person as as well as a further 60 liters for general household purposes.
A direct system heats your water directly and it is only worth considering if you don't experience frost or very cold temperatures.
An indirect system allows water to be heated using heat converting technology and it is a pragmatic solution for areas that experience frost and extremely cold temperatures.
If the water tank is stored away from the solar panel (possibly for aesthetic reasons) then the storage tanks would require the water to be pumped using photovoltaic technology.
A thermosiphon tank is usually installed directly above the solar panel (in situations where aesthetic are not as important) and the water is transported via normal convection principles.
Diy solar power - going green for life and saving money while you do your bit to save the planet?
A pretty good return on your investment!

Titleist Seeks Injunction against TMaG
10.23am 9th August 2010 - Corporate
Acushnet Company, the golf business of Fortune Brands, and manufacturer of Titleist, the #1 ball in golf, and FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf, has filed suit in Superior Court in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts against TaylorMade-adidas Golf (TMaG) and professional golfer Camilo Villegas.
Acushnet Company is seeking a preliminary injunction against TMaG and Villegas regarding any future comments pertaining to a potential future relationship between them. Villegas, ranked No. 25 in the Official World Golf Ranking, is exclusively under contract with Acushnet to play the company's Titleist Pro V1 golf ball, and wear FootJoy golf shoes and gloves, and is prominently featured in the advertising and promotion of those products.
The suit claims TMaG intentionally interfered with Villegas' current contract nearly five months before the end of its term. Acushnet will seek damages in addition to injunctive relief.
In a press release distributed on August 3, TaylorMade's president and CEO announced that Villegas will join the TMaG tour staff beginning in 2011, and stated that more information will be revealed on September 9, 2010.
It further noted that Villegas will join "other members of the renowned TaylorMade Tour Staff," including Kenny Perry and Mike Weir, both of whom are under contract with Acushnet Company to play Titleist golf balls and wear Titleist or FootJoy golf gloves.
"It is unconscionable that this competitor would interfere with a player's contract by publicly announcing its intentions with that player during his contract term with another company," said Joe Nauman, Executive Vice President, Corporate and Legal, Acushnet Company.
"The timing of TMaG's press release was obviously calculated to harm Acushnet Company and diminish the value of Camilo's endorsements. The behavior of TMaG and Camilo's agent is reprehensible, causing Acushnet Company irreparable and significant damage. Camilo is under contract with Acushnet Company through the end of the year and we expect the agreement to be honored throughout the term. We fully expect the Court to act quickly in granting the preliminary injunction and providing the other relief being sought."

Technology advancements, lower costs and complete solutions are among the reasons to consider automating the tracking of linens, towels and uniforms.
Commercial laundry companies have been RFID-tagging and tracking uniforms and linens for more than 15 years to identify customers' items, which must be sorted, cleaned, packaged and loaded on the correct truck for delivery. More recently, casinos, fitness clubs, hospitals, hotels, theme parks and other organizations have begun using RFID to track laundry items, to improve asset visibility and reduce the number of stolen towels.
"Laundry tracking manually is very labor-intensive, because keeping detailed records requires that different types of laundry items must be separated, counted, recorded on paper and then later entered into a computer," says Jeff Welles, VP of RFID laundry solution provider InvoTech Systems. "RFID automatically identifies, counts and records the items without even separating or sorting."
While laundry-tracking systems have been in use for a long time, recent advancements in the technology have led to price drops and increased performance, says Michael Liard, RFID director at VDC Research. Low-frequency and high-frequency solutions dominated the market in the early days, he says. Passive ultrahigh-frequency solutions able to withstand washing conditions have entered the market as lower-cost alternatives. In general, he adds, these systems cost approximately 20 percent less than the older offerings.
UHF RFID tags designed to withstand commercial laundry processes first became available in 2010, Welles says. "These tags each contain a unique ID number and are attached to each uniform or linen item to identify specific inventory items," he explains. "The UHF RFID laundry tags allow inventory items to be processed from a much farther distance than the RFID laundry tags that were previously available." The greater reading distance allows for entire laundry carts of uniforms or linens to be processed and the content recorded instantly, he adds.
William Frick & Company's RFID Wire Laundy Tag.
Some companies hire a systems integrator to develop a laundry-tracking system; the integrator then purchases laundry tags from an RFID provider. Other firms design their own RFID laundry solutions. Disney, for instance, purchased passive UHF tags from Fujitsu Frontech North America and readers from ThingMagic, and created RFID software that integrates with its existing Garment Utilization System.


Accepting your body as is can prove to be a very difficult task. I understand that a lot of you have goals to lose weight for health reasons and to simply feel better. As you journey towards feeling healthier and more energized, I want you to also journey towards body love.
I've been hearing from various people that they are trying to live a healthier lifestyle but are trying to change what motivates them. These people do not want their motivator to be having a "bikini body". They are searching for a better reason but do not know how to get rid of this mindset around appearance.
As an anti-dieter and an advocate for body positivity, I love helping people with these types of challenges. My main motivator during my early 20's was to have the bikini body and that left me feeling unworthy and lonely.
This past weekend, I did a photoshoot for my business. I needed a major picture upgrade and I finally got around to booking a great photographer. I am super excited to get my pictures and share some more food freedom and body love with you all!
You know what felt really good about doing this photoshoot - the fact that I never stressed about dieting or working out. In fact, I had ice cream both Thursday night and Friday night (my shoot was Saturday morning). In the weeks/days leading up to my shoot, I didn't restrict myself from eating what I wanted and I didn't over exhaust myself at the gym in order to lose some inches.

Northeast Natural Energy
We're a different kind of company
Why a smaller natural gas producer is 'all in' with methane emission standards
NNE NewsBy Andy Travis April 30, 2021
Appalachian natural gas producer Northeast Natural Energy is a small, locally-focused company that is privately owned and with about 55 full-time employees, drilling mainly in two West Virginia counties along the Pennsylvania border. It doesn't have the operational heft and big capital expenditure of the big dogs in the basin. But it's also put together a long track record of transparency, opening up its wells to independent academic scrutiny.

Ralph McDaniels Is… Legendary
By bigced 4 years ago
Soul Train was the longest running music TV program for 35 years. Guess which show is creeping up on that number?
Is it a surprise that someone who has based his career in The Business of Hip Hop, is about to eclipse that mark? Although this man, Ralph McDaniels, doesn't get the proper recognition from, literally, hundreds of the most popular hip-hop artists that had their FIRST video either done by him or aired on his, still standing show, Video Music Box. When you look at the Hip Hop (As well as other genres) artists that are at the top of the Forbes list as highest earners, all of them probably had their very first video aired on Video Music Box! No, not probably, they ALL did!!! Puffy, er, I mean, Sean 'P Diddy' Combs, Dr. Dre, Jay Z and Birdman definitely owe this man!!!
Any way…
If there is someone who deserves to be called Legendary, it's Ralph McDaniels of Video Music Box!
Did it ever imagine your show, Video Music Box, being on the air for over 30 years and how does that make you feel?
I did imagine it being on for a while, but not 33 years. I realized at some point we play a role that most entertainment TV shows don't play in New York. It's larger than the just the music videos.
Tell us how your mindset and approach is now doing the show as opposed to when you first started doing it at the beginning.
My approach to doing the show hasn't changed a lot, I'm still open to all genres of music and community minded.
I would say with clarity that if it weren't for you shooting, directing and producing music videos (Classic Concepts) and then having an iconic show like Video Music Box featuring Hip Hop, Reggae and R & B back then, the evolution of Hip-Hop may have had a different, if not as fruitful path than it had. Does this thought cross your mind often and do you think that you've been given enough props for literally advancing the careers of HUNDREDS of artists, specifically, NY Hip Hop?
I don't think about all the artists and others that we have given starts to until someone brings it up or they leave us out of their book or speech. No worries, I have it on videotape.
What was your reasoning for being involved in The Business of Hip-Hop and how has its evolution affected you and the running of your business?
I started out as a lover of music and television. Hip-Hop is a compilation of all music's and it can be presented however you like. The idea that I could present my platform however I wanted, was very attractive. I wanted to be as non-corporate as I could be.
With social media playing a very heavy influence in the Hip-Hop audience as far as artists being able to reach out directly to their fan base, How do you think artists from 15, 20, 30 years ago would have fared with dealing with their audience then since there was a disconnect between fans and artist, as far as being able to reach out to each other?
The method of connecting with your fan based has changed from the 80's and 90's, but you still have to be true to your fans. Social media can be deceptive.
If you could eliminate any trends with the culture of Hip-Hop from your inception into the game, what would it be and why?
Too many followers and not enough leaders on all levels of the business.
What are your thoughts on the batch of videos being produced these days?
I love the way technology has made it easier to produce content, I feel a lot of the content looks good, but has no soul.
How is Hip-Hop managing commercially in 30 years?
Commercially, I wish there was more balance. Why is commercial music so important? But, I tell people all the time, it's right where it is supposed be. Evolution is happening everyday.
I was told several years ago by a friend who grew up listening to Hip-Hop, that the commercialization of the culture and the message resonating from 'us' is partly the reason black people get the bad rep we have in society. What do you say about that line of thinking?
I think Black people get a bad rep no matter what we create. We are advanced in certain things and people don't understand that gift. Commercially, people love Nina Simone, Muhammad Ali and Malcolm X now, but they were trouble making niggers back then. We are all vessels of the most high.
Ralph McDaniels has a chance to go back in any point in time and do something differently that he was unable or didn't do, what, if anything would he do and why?
I feel I wasted time on other people's things. You can't make that time up.
A new museum just opened recently and from my understanding, you and Video Music Box were acknowledged. How did that come about and what was your reaction when you found out you'd be included in such an historical institution?
The Smithsonian African American Museum talked to me about my archives about 5 years ago. They wanted a physical object to place in the museum and I gave them the Video Music Box mic flag. It was an amazing experience to see VMB included in the launch of this historic building alongside other historic items. We are located on the 4th floor of the museum, to the right of Bootsy Collins' stage outfit.

wifisfuneral - 'wya?'


By Ron Karlen on Feb 9, 2019 at 9:06 p.m.
I hate to use the word "hypocrites," but I don't know one more suitable for the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline protestors ("Four pipeline activists arrested in Itasca County," Feb. 5).
Do you suppose they walked or biked to Clearbrook, Minn.? Maybe they drove an SUV or pickup truck, burning hydrocarbons. Do you suppose they turned their natural gas or fuel oil furnaces off last week to protest consuming gas or oil? Maybe they drove to their protest on wooden wheels so as not to use rubber tires made from hydrocarbons. Do you suppose they turned off their electricity to protest the usage of gas-generated electric power from a gas pipeline?
We need to be rational folks. The U.S. consumes 19 million barrels of oil a day. The U.S. produces just under 12 million barrels per day. Enbridge is not the problem! Traffic on our freeways is not lessening. Yes, the new, more-efficient vehicles have brought our consumption down from 21 million barrels per day, but we are not anywhere near the elimination of pipelines. So why not do business with our faithful ally, Canada? It is much better to deal with a friend than with other hostile countries.


Made this again with a new base and spice mix, really still in the experimental stages.

Software Allows Photographers to Manipulate Objects in 3D
By Meghan Coyle
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have developed a new photo-editing tool that lets users turn and flip objects as if they were in 3D. Photo editors have only been able to manipulate objects in 2D by resizing them or changing their location within the photo. This new software uses a publicly available database of models to recreate objects, even the sides that were not captured by the camera. Researchers found that this software could be used for animations as well. Continue reading Software Allows Photographers to Manipulate Objects in 3D

Wearable Tech: Google Glass Finds Customers in the Workplace
While some consumers have been skeptical of Google Glass since it was first announced, it looks like the wearable tech is finding initial interest in the workplace, including areas such as law enforcement, medicine, manufacturing and athletics. In contrast, bars in San Francisco have already banned patrons from wearing Google Glass. Google is making the product available to the public later this year, but critics are skeptical of how it will be received by general consumers.

How to Raise Your Dota 2 MMR In Season 4
How to Increase Your Dota 2 MMR: Fighting
Throughout history, many were the times when an army with worse equipment and fewer soldiers emerged victorious out of an unfavourable battle. In Dota 2 games the same thing happens when one team plays and coordinates very intelligently during team fights, while the other wrongly assumes that it has already won the match just because it has an advantage in gold and experience. Here are the fundamental principles and strategies of Dota 2 fighting:
1. Occupy the high ground
When the fight takes place on a terrain that contains stairs, these stairs create portions of low ground and high ground. In such situations, occupying the high ground gives you two advantages:
Better vision. In the absence of an Observer Ward, allied units or certain abilities placed on the high ground, your opponents won't be able to see you due to the fog of war, while you will be able to see them.
25% evasion against ranged attacks. When a ranged hero attacks uphill, it has a 25% of missing its attack (unless it has a Monkey King Bar).
2. Don't attack alone into a well-positioned enemy group
When you initiate the fight, search for a poorly positioned target that has separated itself from the pack and can no longer be instantly helped by its teammates. Or, if you initiate in the midst of the enemy team (with a hero like Magnus or Enigma), make sure that the rest of your team is close enough to be able to intervene right away and take advantage of your initiation. Otherwise you will most likely catch just a few heroes in the disable with which you make the initiation, and the others, being close to them, will counter-attack using their items and abilities. This usually results in your quick death and a wasted long-duration cooldown ultimate.
This principle also applies for heroes who do not initiate through an AoE (Area of Effect) disable, or in situations like defending a tower. I'm pretty sure you had at least one time the experience of losing your entire team in such a situation, in which your opponents had occupied an assault position near one of your towers, while your teammates were trying to stop them from taking this objective by attacking or teleporting in one by one. Always keep an eye on the minimap and check how far you are from the rest of your team. Otherwise you risk attacking just by yourself into an enemy concave and getting killed instantly before anyone can intervene to help you. All of us do this from time to time, and then spam pings and rhetorical questions: "Team? Team? Team?!...".
3. Divide and conquer
A lineup works like a machine in which every piece has a vital role in the functioning of the whole. If the "heart" dies, the entire lineup dies. If the link between the support heroes and the rest of their team is severed during a fight, the entire team suffers.
The strength of a team during fights depends on the way in which its members synchronize and help each other. And the key to destroying this team in such moments is to identify and sever the critical links that its playstyle relies upon. Maybe they have a Dazzle who wants to keep his Shallow Grave ability in order to save a teammate. Or an Omniknight who's trying to stay near his allies in order to cast a key spell at a critical moment. Forcing these support heroes to use their abilities on themselves, or keeping them away from the rest of their team during a fight, can be a sure way to victory.
The divide and conquer principle also applies when facing a team whose gold and experience advantage is too big and who can no longer be defeated in a 5 vs. 5 battle. In such situations, the strategy of split-pushing implicitly uses this principle by forcing the enemy team to split its forces into groups that can be beaten separately.
4. Make sure you have superior vision at the place of the fight
When you know that you're about to fight at a static location such as a tower or near the Roshan pit, it's very important to make sure you have excellent vision over that area and are prepared for any kind of initiation from the enemy team. Especially if it has invisible heroes, or items such as Shadow Blade and Blink Dagger. At the same time, you gain a big advantage if you manage to take away your opponents' vision. Without it, they can no longer follow your movements and predict what you're trying to do. Because of this, Observer and Sentry Wards cannot miss from your support heroes' inventory in such moments. These wards should be placed before the fight begins in order to ensure a vision advantage for your team, and, ideally, a lack of vision for your opponents.
5. Identify where the enemy damage comes from and prevent it from being utilized
A lineup will almost always have heroes whose role is to deal damage, and heroes meant to help the first ones fulfill their role as damage dealers by creating the necessary conditions and enabling them to attack as much as possible during fights.
Identifying the key sources of damage of the opposing team allows you to create a strategy for avoiding that damage. Sometimes you will decide together with your teammates to buy Force Staffs in order to save someone from an enemy hero like Ursa or Life Stealer. Other times you will decide that a Heaven's Halberd or an Orchid is the right item to buy in order to prevent a damage dealer from doing their job. Ghost Scepters, Eul's Scepters, Glimmer Capes and Black King Bars are other alternatives.
Ghost Scepters, Eul's Scepters, Glimmer Capes and Black King Bars are other alternatives. Regardless of how you decide to deal with this problem, the key thing is to identify and address it. Otherwise your team will be completely unprepared to fight against certain types of heroes, or it will fight them in a random and unthoughtful way, with completely unpredictable results.
6. Pick your battles intelligently
Ideally, you should be seeking direct confrontations with the enemy team's heroes in moments that are favorable to you and unfavorable to them. There's no point in starting fights that you cannot win due to a big difference in gold and experience favoring your opponents. It's also a bad idea to force a fight when:
Certain key abilities of your team are on cooldown.
One or more teammates are low on mana and HP.
You would have to fight in numeric inferiority, due to the fact that one or more members of your team will not be able to get to the scene of the battle in useful time.
Before engaging in a direct confrontation with the enemy team, ask yourself four questions:
What are my chances of winning this fight given the balance of power between my team and the enemy team?
Should I win this fight, what objectives do I stand to win (a tower, Roshan etc.)?
Should I lose this fight, what objectives do I stand to lose?
Is it absolutely mandatory that I engage in this fight?
And if the answers indicate that it would be better for you to avoid the fight, simply dodge it and use your time in a more intelligent way: by farming, pushing the lanes and so on.
7. Deceive and bait your opponents into traps
Every time you show yourself on the map, your enemies will decide whether to attack or leave you alone. And when making this decision, they will ask themselves the questions mentioned above in order to determine whether the fight makes sense for them or not. Who would foolishly launch an attack that's destined to fail?
During such moments, you can hide a part of your forces and create the impression that you're weaker than you actually are. And in doing so, you might bait your opponents into starting a fight under circumstances that actually favor you, not them.
Hiding forces can be done using smoke, Shadow Blades or the limits of your enemy's vision. People often hide in the trees or simply in a fog of war area, and reveal themselves only after their opponents took the bait.
8. Use a focused damage approach
Whenever you can, focus the team's damage on one or a maximum of two key targets. This will greatly increase your chances of bringing down an enemy hero before they or their team can react. Subsequently, such an advantage obtained at the start of the fight can have a snowball effect, leading to an entire team wipe or a scared enemy who will soon be in disarray, with every team member running for his life.
On the contrary, if everyone on your team goes for a different target and the damage is spread thin, the results are likely to be poor.
Good teams usually decide these matters ahead of time, or at the very latest during or just before the fight. They will identify who the most important targets are and they will go for them.
9. Don't passively farm with a team-fight oriented lineup
If your team picks heroes that are slow farmers but good fighters, and if your opponents have a weak early game fighting potential but scale better (become stronger) into the late game, go fight them as soon as your team has hit a power peak. Force fights around objectives like towers or Roshan and press your early game advantage. If you fail to do this you will most likely lose, because neutral time (time during which neither team takes any meaningful objective) passes in your opponents' favor, who will most likely outfarm and overpower you if left alone to do whatever they want for a significant number of minutes.
10. Don't bite more than you can chew
After winning a fight, a team's tendency is to keep pushing and fighting without going back. This is especially true in low MMR brackets, where players don't really stop and think about what caused them to win the fight in the first place. Often times, this decision to keep going forward is a mistake and leads to defeats that reset the advantage that was previously gained.
If you watch professional tournaments, you will notice that teams, after winning a fight, usually take an objective such as a tower and then go back to regenerate and farm some more. Why do they do this? Because they recognize that the fight was won due to the abilities that they used, which may now be on cooldown, and also due to the fact that their heroes had high HP and mana at the beginning of the fight, but may now be low on both of them. At the same time, their enemies will soon respawn and be at full strength.

Jobs can be found in Redlands, but you have to dig
By Daily News | |
PUBLISHED: March 12, 2009 at 12:00 am | UPDATED: August 29, 2017 at 12:36 pm
Redlands: Job hunting? There are some opportunities right here in town, if you know where to look.
Steve Carrasco, branch manager for Arrow Staffing Services in Redlands, said right now he has positions available in Redlands at a plastics company and at a company looking for technical support employees.
"We do get some local law offices and maybe some tax companies that are looking for clerical help," Carrasco said. "Other than that, it's been kind of slow."
He said currently the agency had about 300 people looking for work.
"We have plenty of people, we just didn't have that many positions," he said. Carrasco said the wait can be three weeks or longer to find a job through the staffing agency.
A quick Web search on the Inland Empire section of craigslist.com for Redlands resulted in 71 hits, although some were for people looking for work or other related listings.
Job listings on the Web site include a maintenance supervisor for Good Nite Inn, a tattoo artist, a dentist position for Redlands Dental Group, an automobile sales representatives for Redlands Auto Center, a piano instructor, an assisted living caregiver position with Somerford Place, a carpet and upholstery cleaning specialist, and a real estate office receptionist.
Carrasco said he has seen people come in who had been earning $20-25 an hour who would now be happy with a job that paid half as much.
He said in the past the Redlands agency had seen more construction jobs and warehouse work, and at one time saw many jobs in the housing industry, including remodeling, plumbing, or refurnishing.
"Even the furniture manufacturers," he said.
He recommended to anyone looking for a job to not only connect with a employment agency, which could have access to a variety of positions, but also to network among friends and family.
"Not all jobs are advertised," he said. "It's usually if you know somebody, you'll get a position."
He also recommended sending a resume to any company that looks interesting, regardless if they have a position available at the time.
Redlands-based software ESRI`s job search site came up with 130 hit for jobs at the headquarters on New York Street in Redlands.
"ESRI is seeking technical writers, web developers, enterprise software sales engineers, software product engineers, PC technicians and a few administrative professionals to support its finance, contracts, and operations functions," said Karen Hurlbut, strategic marketing manager at ESRI.
She said that ESRI plans to increase its workforce by about 5 percent company-wide this year, with 90 of the positions in Redlands. She also said they have seen a 25 percent increase in job applications for professional, administrative, and technician positions recently.
In an article Jan. 27, economist John Husing said that the advantage in Redlands was a population with an above-average education, and that people with higher education levels have an easier time finding work.

When I returned my car to the leasing company in 2001, I decided to keep the plates for myself. I knew I shouldn't have, but I did. One ended up hanging on my office wall for the longest time, the other went in a box.
About 5 years ago I decided I wanted those plates again. The State of California told me there were only two ways to get them back – show proof I had both of the LA CLIPR plates and presented them with a copy of my Father's death certificate OR get the leasing company that had co-title on the last car the plates were on to tell the State to release them back in to the public.
I looked everywhere, but couldn't find the second plate, so I decided to contact the leasing company, GE Capital. That became a dead end once I discovered GE Capital no longer had an auto lease finance division. I did talk with someone over there, they said they'd try to help, but that it could be years before they could find records from 2001, if at all.
My quest was dead, or so I thought. I've been on a massive organization kick of late and opened up boxes that haven't been touched in ages and surprise, surprise, there was the second LA CLIPR license plate!
After a quick trip to the AAA and almost $200 in back fees, those plates are back on my ride! I can't wait to drive the car Staples Center this fall to begin my 25th year as a fan of this team!
Next up, get this changed to one of those cool black/yellow vanity plates!

Derrick Pereira's teams are defensively strong; it'll be a tough game against FC Goa: NorthEast United FC's Khalid Jamil
13 Jan, 2022 ISL Media Team
Copy on clipboard
NorthEast United FC head coach Khalid Jamil needs his team to be vigilant of the danger FC Goa possesses and urged them to follow their gameplan, as his side takes on the Gaurs in matchday 60 of the Hero Indian Super League (ISL) 2021-22 season on Friday at the Athletic Stadium in Bambolim, Goa.
The 44-year-old admitted that his team is conceding goals in heaps and stated that he's working on a plan to improve the defensive structure of the side while also brushing up the attacking front.
Jamil will face his former opponent Derrick Pereira, current head coach of FC Goa, as the two shared the field during their National Football League and I-League days, several years ago.
Ahead of his side's clash against FC Goa, the NorthEast United FC head coach addressed the media during a pre-match press conference.
Here are the excerpts from the coach's press conference:
FC Goa have changed a lot in terms of how they play since the last time you played them, and now they have a new head coach in Derrick Pereira. How do you see them going into Friday's game?
They have changed quite a lot because a new coach has come. Derrick sir is doing a good job. They played well in their last match, and talking about the team, they played well too, they're playing with a new formation.
The last game, they trained only for one day and they won; they have quality players, so we have to be alert and it's not going to be like the last time we played against them. Definitely, it's a different game, we are playing in their ground, we have to be careful, and we have to go according to our plan.
Friday's game is one Indian coach against another Indian coach. So, how do you look at the match on Friday?
First of all, I never think about that. Talking about Derrick sir, he's one of the best Indian coaches, he's the most experienced coach, and under him, I've learnt many things, I'm still looking forward to meeting him. It will be a tough game because Derrick sir is very strong defensively and he motivates the players the way he wants.
Him and I also discuss about the Goa team. So, we never think it is with the Indian coach or the foreign coach, we are facing the Goa team, we played with them, and now, they're improving. They have a new energy, and for us, we must think about our own game.
How do you see the second half coming up for NorthEast United FC?
Coming to the second leg, we need a good start. For that, I want to say that our technical director Ohad [Efrat], who is from Israel, was also with us last year. I have done good because of him, last year we got good results because of him. He's young, experienced and we share a good working experience.
NorthEast United FC have conceded nine goals in the last three matches, and we have seen the team score regularly. So how do you think the team should improve defensively?
Yes, we have to improve defensively. We are conceding goals, but in football these situations happen. Now, we have Ohad in those situations, who'll help us defensively. So, this time we are ready to not concede any goals, to score and finish the game as early as possible, and all the players know their roles, they are mature. We work defensively this time and hope we don't concede goals on Friday.
Your team has conceded 20 goals already this season. So, what do you feel has been the biggest issue in defense this season?
Talking about conceding goals, you cannot just blame the defense because midfield is also involved and if you talk about modern football then even the striker must work hard, so, it is not a specific mistake only from the defense, there are individual mistakes, goalkeeper mistakes, we cannot blame anybody, but we are trying to bounce back.
We've worked this week as we had enough time, we worked defensively this time. Every match we had some or the other changes. I think the best match we've played was the last match, everybody played well, and talking about the next game we are working very hard.
Deshorn Brown has been in fine form so far after his injury. How important a role does he play for NorthEast United FC and also for your playing style?
Yes, Brown, I don't have to say anything about him. He's one of the best players in the ISL and he's one of the main players we have. I'm immensely proud to be his coach and he's an important player. For a player like him to be available is a plus point for us.
I've never seen him complaining, he listens to my instructions, he obeys the game. Even though he has played fewer matches, he has been highly effective for us. He guides the team and is a skilful player.

19-year-old Virginia suspect in triple homicide in custody, Tampa Bay Rays minor league player's wife and child are among victims
Lea Campbell | TheBL 08/28/19, 16:18
Matthew Thomas Bernard, 19 years old, has been arrested on three counts of first-degree murder. (Pittsylvania County Police Department)
Police apprehended Matthew Thomas Bernard, 19, of Keeling, Virginia, who was unarmed and completely unclothed, around 12:20 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 27. He was charged with three counts of first-degree murder in Pittsylvania County after the deaths of two women and a child.
Pittsylvania County Sheriff Mike Taylor said that in total, about 100 officers responded to the scene from numerous agencies including law enforcement officers from Martinsville, Danville, Henry County, as well as Department of Corrections officers and Virginia State troopers to help in the search for Bernard.
Authorities have not released many details about what led to the murders and how the victims were killed.
WSLS-TV reported that the Pittsylvania County Sheriff's Office and Virginia State Police were dispatched to Matthew Bernard's family home shortly after receiving a 911 call at 8 a.m. that someone had been shot.
The first responding officer found a woman's body in the driveway of the home, who later identified as Bernard's 62-year-old mother, Joan Bernard. The other two victims, a woman and a child, were found inside the home, later identified as Bernard's sister, 24-year-old Emily Bernard Bivens and his nephew, Cullen Bivens, the wife and 1-year-old son of Tampa Bay Rays pitching prospect Blake Bivens.
"We don't know what happened to set off this chain of events," Taylor said.
The sheriff's office said that Bernard was last seen in blue jeans and a white shirt, had a rifle with him and took off into the woods.
Authorities released a description of Bernard to alert the neighborhood about the situation and advised residents to be aware and on the lookout for him.
Dan River High School, Dan River Middle School, Kentuck Elementary School, Southside Elementary School, Chatham Middle School, Chatham High School, Regional Alternative School and the Pittsylvania Career and Technical Center were told to stay in lock down until the suspect was located or the surrounding area was fully searched and clear.
Police also put Danville Community College where Bernard was a student into a lockdown.
The street and area around the home were closed and officials were not letting anyone down the road.
K-9 officers were brought into the area to search for Bernard in the wooded area near the home. After some time of searching the area, a naked man ran toward an armed officer in tactical gear. Bernard was sprayed with pepper spray by the officer, he ran through a media staging area and then he took off running into a nearby parking lot.
Police said that Bernard was seen attempting to choke an elderly groundskeeper at Keeling Baptist Church who was trying to get into his vehicle in that parking lot.
Bernard was arrested at 12:18 p.m. and taken to a nearby medical facility for treatment. Taylor said that he did try to escape officers.
Bryant Bernard, the suspect's uncle, who describing Matthew Bernard as "an all-around perfect kid," told the news station that Matthew Bernard's father, Nelson Bernard, was home at the time of the murders and was not killed.
"In my wildest dreams, I never could have imagined it. Not him," he told WSLS-TV.
Taylor said in the Tuesday's news conference that authorities are still investigating motive.
"We won't go into the whys because we don't know yet. We are trying to figure that out ourselves," he told reporters.
Taylor also said that the victims' bodies were transported to the Roanoke medical examiners office to determine the cause of death through autopsies.
Warrants were issued for Bernard and he was arrested on three counts of murder. Bernard has not yet been scheduled for his first court appearance, according to Law Enforcement Today.

Q: What's the difference and connection between symmetry breaking and anomaly? I'm just wondering what's the difference between symmetry breaking and anomaly.
From my understanding, symmetry breaking means: there is a symmetry in the action, but in the ground state of the theory(minimum of the action), the symmetry becomes smaller, which is a subgroup of the original symmetry.
While anomaly means that there is a symmetry in the classical theory ,but it's no longer a symmetry after quantization.
I think there should be some connections between them, but I don't know yet.

A: The answer to the linked question largely answers your question, but it assumes a bit. Contrast the following cases. I italicize your special interest parts, but they should be set in context.

*

*Unbroken, not anomalous symmetry. Good symmetry, both classically and quantum, with visible and pleasing effects. Global or local (e.g. color).
Symmetry currents conserved.

*Explicitly broken symmetry. Both classically and quantum, normally considered  when the breaking (the non-vanishing divergence of currents) is small, e.g. the flavor SU(3) symmetry of light quarks.

*Spontaneously broken symmetry. The current is conserved, but quantum collective effects, induced by the hamiltonian, alter the vacuum to a non-symmetric type, so the realization of the symmetry is peculiar, in the Nambu-Goldstone mode, with less facile effects, even though visible. The chiral symmetries of massless quarks in QCD are such. The local version underlies EW interactions.

*Anomalous symmetry The current is conserved classically, but due to a property of the Dirac sea, develops a non-vanishing divergence proportional to $\hbar$ computable via fermion loop corrections to it. It is a property of the fermion sea/measure, not the vacuum altered by the hamiltonian. Globally, as in flavor chiral ones, they control important physics processes, like neutral pion decay, and are generally summarized by WZWN actions. Locally, they invalidate gauge invariance and render gauge theories inconsistent, so are avoided/cancelled (by the addition of suitable fermions) with extreme prejudice.

MEGA NEWS - The Project Pelagos
Ecco the Game - Ecco: Save the Dolphins!
Originally featured in MEGA Force Magazine 13 on January 1993, Pages 12 - 13
Translated from French by J. P. "Yuki" Savard
If you don't own Ecco on Megadrive and you notice a cartridge with a sticker for the Pelagos project, jump on it. You'll have fun with a great game and you'll let Sega give another 5 francs for the Pelagos project, isn't that great?
A vast awareness campaign has been launched, aimed at sensitizing the general public on the danger faced by dolphins and all other marine mammals. It's taking advantage of the launch of the Ecco The Dolphin game on Megadrive with Sega of France taking part in the protection of dolphins. MegaForce has learned about this and presents to you information that will amaze, and for some, shock at the same time. You also need to buy Ecco The Dolphin, it's a great game but it's also even more than just a game - It's your participation in safeguarding marine life. Ecco-logical!
Ecco the Dolphin Really Exists!
If you've already played the fabulous aquatic action/adventure game that is Ecco, you should know that Ecco really does exist and he's currently taking it easy between the Mediterranean and Adriatic seas! Ecco is part of the bottlenose dolphin breed (the Tursiops Truncatus or great dolphin). The average size of this breed is 3 metres in length, with some males somewhat larger than females. A male can reach a maximum length of 3 metres and weigh up to 390 kilos!
For all the aspiring scientists reading this, the Bottlenose Dolphin has 20 to 26 small teeth, its belly is white. The female can only have one calf which is carried for 12 months (The calf measures 1m at birth!). Females are sexually mature between the ages 5 and 12 and can only produce calves every two years. The Bottlenose Dolphin can reach a speed of 33 km/h (which is fast for a dolphin) and can stay underwater for up to 8 minutes (as those who played the Megadrive game would know).
The classic meal for a Bottlenose Dolphin is composed of fish (anchovies, pilchard, mackerel, cornetfish, squid, etc.). A Dolphin in captivity can live up to 5 to 7 years, while a Dolphin living in the wild can live up to 25 to 30 years
Concerning our dear friend Ecco, he is well known by the inhabitants of the islands of Cherso and Lussino in the Adriatic. He is often seen making a fool of himself, performing double jumps in the air. Ecco can be spotted by his unique dorsal fin that has a whice crescent of grey blue, the usual color for a dolphin. Ecco is a loner and likes to go from group to group.
I Adopted a Dolphin:
The real Ecco the Dolphin! He's recognizable by his white speckled fin. Ecco likes to approach the coast, acting silly and making tourists laugh.
Photos obtained from MEGA Force magazine and restored by Tonurics and Johnny "Arkonviox" de Alba.
Murderous Fisherman
Ecco's situation is very concerning, this includes all of his fellow dolphins living in the Mediterranean. This is due to illegal industrialized fishing. This type of fishing involves giagantic nets that are discreetly left to drift. The law allows nets 2.5 km in length but some fishman laugh this off and use 10 km nets. The result of this profitable fishing enterprise takes on the appearance of a mass genocide with regards to several breeds of aquatic life, including Bottlenose Dolphins.
The offending fishermen are Italian but are also Moroccan, Spanish, Greek, French (eh, eh!) and also Japanese (eh, eh again!). Under the pretense of fishing for swordfish, Italians have probably captured six dolphins this year, and when I say "captured", this means a slow horrible death. Just imagine drifting 20 metres underwater for a few days, do you see the disaster? Just to remind you, a dolphin is a mammal, certainly marine, but still mammal; it must regularly rise to the surface to breathe.
The funny thing in the story is that industrial fishing companies in the Mediteranean Sea aren't even aware they're exhausting their principal source of income, it's a real commercial suicide! So we don't really see why innocent victims like dolphins would be hostages of a fishery that doesn't even have to be, or at least in the rules (2.5 km)... Anyway, the offending societies completely don't care because they're going to exhaust other seas when the Mediteranean will be nothing more than a gigantic aquatic cemetery. It's therefore up to us to respond, because species such as whales or dolphins are heading for disaster: if nothing is done today, these species will be endangered by the end of the century, the end of their story…
If you want to co-adopt, you need to contact "Europe Conservation" whose contact details are: C.P. 44. 41260 LA CHAUSSÉE SAINT VICTOR Phone: 54 74 22 80
But What to Do Then?
As the Ecco game deals largely with underwater world protection, Sega of France made the excellent decision to participate in the saving of dolphins in the Mediteranean Sea! The coolest thing about this story is that you're also going to participate in this great movement against human predators who use killer nets or dump chemicals into the sea. It's not about sinking 800 fishing boats that ply the Mediteranean (that's best left for the next shoot-them-up on Megadrive!) but more to avoid falling into this trap of savagery. The Europe Conservation is working in this direction on a project for an aquatic natural park in the Ligurian Sea (between Corsica and Monaco), or a marine reserve.
Proposed Marine Reserve:
Here is the chosen zone for the project Pelagos. It's one of the richest areas of the Mediterranean in terms of animal species.
Original map obtained from MEGA Force magazine. Map recreation by Johnny "Arkonviox" de Alba and vectorized by Tonurics.
The dolphins and other endangered marine animals could thus live there in peace. That would make a 40000 square km basin in the international waters between the French Riviera and Corsica. It's serious since it is based on concepts introduced by Unesco in 1974, a lot of important people are involved with this fabulous project, and Sega of France decided to participate financially. It might be difficult to set up, therefore costing a lot of money (indeed, you can't put up money like that in natural parks around the world!).
Sega of France will thus donate 5 francs for each of the first 30000 Ecco games sold (that'd nevertheless makes 150000 francs for dolphins) to the Europe Conservation association, initiator of the Pelagos project, since the name of the reserve will be Pelagos. And this is where you come in, dear attentive readers (for those who held up until now, this is a change from oridinary news, eh?). If you don't own Ecco on Megadrive and you notice a cartridge with a sticker for the Pelagos project, jump on it. You'll have fun with a great game and you'll let Sega give another 5 francs to the Pelagos project, great isn't it!

In 1983, one of the most iconic cars in India's automobile history, the Maruti 800, was launched and it went on to become the most coveted consumer product in the country. Decades later, the tiny Maruti car has been retired but its manufacturer, Maruti Suzuki India, still remains the country's largest selling car maker. It has sold more than 20 million cars in India over the past three decades.
In all this time, the automaker has fended off competition from both local and foreign players to keep the top spot. Now, with smart pricing and expansion in portfolio, the company is trying to shed its image of being a no-frill car maker. Our cover story takes a look at Maruti Suzuki's efforts to thrive in the new age.
