Putin and Lukashenko Started to Rebuild a Common Home

Vladimir Putin and Aleksandr Lukashenko's meeting was preceded by the hardened information war of opponents of the Union State. The West participated the most in this war for obvious reasons, because the unification of Russia and Belarus belongs among the most important, if not THE most important, geopolitical questions defining the destiny of the world. Because, after Crimea, it means one more step made by Russia towards the restoration of its temporarily lost borders of Big Russia (USSR)
These days will become history, along with the epic of Crimea. It will happen a little bit later, because now so far there are no clear declared results of negotiations, everything is sewed with basting stitches, the real details are hidden, but by what floats to the surface, it is already seen that there was a serious advance in the construction of the Union State.
Putin again overtook the West on the bend and outplayed its long-term strategy in three days. Of course, he did it together with Lukashenko, who also presented a mass of unpleasant surprises to the West, but he wouldn't be able to do this if it wasn't for the well-verified and clear position of Putin before these negotiations.
I always affirmed – Vladimir Putin may not succeed in something on the diplomatic front or in internal economic policies, but one thing is undoubted – he is the most successful negotiator of our time. He doesn't lose any negotiations that he holds. And even if his opponents can later neutralise something, this doesn't cancel the fact of his ability to achieve a victory at the negotiation table.
One of the examples of such success is the Minsk negotiations over the suspension of the large-scale military operations of Ukraine in Donbass. The situation became a diplomatic trap for the West. And Russia didn't allow the most dangerous scenario – war with a part of its own people. The fact that it was succeeded to disrupt this scenario is indeed the most important victory of Putin-negotiator concerning Ukraine.
Now, Vladimir Putin achieved the most important victory in the most difficult question on unification with Belarus – trust between him and Aleksandr Lukashenko was restored. Without this the negotiations would have ended in two hours. But they lasted three days, and the main part of the results is classified. It means that they reached an agreement, and the West won't be allowed to know about what. A general picture with general words was presented for the media.
Putin carried out the preparation for negotiations perfectly. A strong negotiation position was taken – economy in exchange for policies. Lukashenko accepted this agenda, something that Nazarbayev hasn't done. Before these negotiations Lukashenko mobilised an enormous resource of support in Russia. He played on contradictions between Kremlin-connected groups.
This policy wasn't successful because while keeping a conflict vis-a-vis many internal questions, the foreign policy contour is perceived by all groups in power in a concerted manner. A direct information agency of Lukashenko was opened in Russia and disavowed. The counter information wave caused a state close to panic in Minsk. Lukashenko even held a meeting on information policy and security, meaning countering the Russian media, from TV to Telegram channels.
And finally, the parties met at the negotiating table seriously. The situation ripened – in Belarus the economic situation worsens, and the pro-West moods of the population – especially the youth – grow in many respects thanks to the direct support of the administration of Lukashenko. Many western NGOs work in the country, huge funds were allocated for the recruitment of Russophobic forces.
The movement towards de-Russification, a directive imposing the Belarusian language, roman catholic churches, embroidery, and Latin – all of this, which received the name of "soft creeping Belarusification", steadily turns Belarus into an enemy, shifting it from the Russian cultural space to the Polish-Lithuanian one.
Lukashenko in every possible way made it clear to Russia – he is ready to bring Belarus away from the West, even if afterwards it will cost him Yanukovych's fate. This is in many respects a bluff, because the main motive of Lukashenko is the preservation of his personal authority. But bluffing is dangerous because it can cross the line and turn into a reality. Lukashenko made it clear to Russian partners that he would rather hand over Belarus to Poland than agree to become a Russian governor. And he desperately shows the determination of these intentions – and he will continue to show it until he obtains a guarantee of the preservation of the space of his power.
Those processes that are now ongoing in Belarus at full speed in the long term lead to a Maidan in 2020 during presidential elections. If a breakthrough in relations with Russia isn't achieved, the economic situation in Belarus will worsen. In combination with pandering to the opposition, this means a flow of power resources to the West.
Lukashenko is being driven into a corner, and this is not that situation when rational decisions are being made. The main task of Putin was to first of all bring Lukashenko out of the corner that he drove himself into under the influence of his fears and phobias that arose after the Crimean spring. Without this it was impossible to reach an agreement with Lukashenko.
Putin and Lukashenko's negotiations go precisely in line with the gradual unification of two sovereign states with the preservation of the sovereignty of both of them. I.e., this is the reanimation of the Soviet Union under another name, but on the same principles – a return to the scheme of creating a Union State from the national republics. The best and correct way to restore what was destroyed. The power and status of each party is preserved, and instead of sharing out the pie, ways of enlarging it are being considered.
It is the West that reacted with the most precision to this litmus paper of all our intentions. There is quiet panic. The editor-in-chief of the oppositional Belarusian website financed by Poland "Charter-97" Nataliya Radina, who gave an interview to the Ukrainian TV channel "112 Ukraine", acted as the speaker of the western position. As the opposition in Belarus pursues its own aims – the maximum disintegration of Russia and Belarus, and wages information war concerning this topic, the corresponding language is thus being used for this purpose. The unification of Russia and Belarus in any form, whatever it may be, is stubbornly called "the absorption of Belarus by Russia".
The Belarusian opposition long chose a master and serves it in every way. In this case Nataliya Radina is the "talking head" of NATO. This is expressed in her thesis, where she claims: the danger of a Union of Russia and Belarus is so far seen only in Ukraine and in NATO, but the US and Europe still haven't realised the whole scale of the approaching trouble. She lies – they realised, and her speech is the first proof of it. They were always aware and never lost sight of it.
NATO shouts via Radina's lips: if Russia and Belarus unite, then, owing to the superiority of Russia in size and resources, Minsk will start to be subordinated to Moscow. Note – the picture of the event that is being imposed involves subordination and a conflict of interest. The thought that the interests of Moscow and Minsk can coincide and become a single whole, that Russia won't be able to take any essential step within the framework of a Union State without taking into account the consent of Belarus, is being hushed up like the most terrible state secret. They need to make Moscow look like a scarecrow, and without this their manipulation won't work.
Radina says: the unification of Russia and Belarus bears a direct threat to Ukraine and Baltic states, because in such a case the Belarusian army on their border will become the army of Russia (the direct scheme of thinking and language of NATO). And that this will change all the existing balance of power – not in favour of NATO, of course. And preventing it is possible only by imposing the affirmation that the main interest of Belarus lies in the preservation and deepening of collaboration with the West, preserving the status of its puppet in the geopolitical war with Russia. Is this really in the interests of Belarus? A trivial question… Is it in the interests of Ukraine its war with Russia in favour of the West? And it is the same with Belarus.
Of course, via Radina's lips the West accuses Lukashenko. He is to blame since Belarus can become for the West a dangerous territory, because he it supports the creation of a Union State with Russia. From the point of view of the West's interests, this is inadmissible. Strengthening big historical Russia can't be allowed at any cost.
All of the war against this project of Russia and Belarus is still ahead – up to acts of terrorism and provocations of the opposition. What Lukashenko conceded to the opposition in the form of platforms in Belarus for blackmailing Russia will be by all means used by this opposition against Lukashenko if he indeed goes along the way of unification with Russia. Even on conditions that are most favourable to Belarus – and there won't be other conditions.
And Radina confirms the direct threat of the West to Lukashenko – she states that as long as he is in power, one shouldn't "wait for stability" in Belarus. Of course, stability is understood by the fifth column as the stability of external management of Belarus. Everything that leads aside isn't stability any more. They hope for a fool. This is manipulation of the most flagrant manner, but it can work on an inexperienced mass environment.
Agitation in pro-West Belarusian media, direct threats towards Lukashenko, which are sounded by these media not from themselves, but from their masters in such a specific audience as the occupational [junta – ed] Ukrainian resources, is a direct black mark that is impossible to ignore.
To threaten Lukashenko is to directly push him to the opposite side. But the West seeks not to strengthen Lukashenko, but to control him, for the purpose of removing him when oppositional puppets will gain strength. And Lukashenko understands this very well. That's why his resource in the game between the West and Russia is exhausted, although his rhetoric will continue.
But in the process of increasing threats from the West, Makei becomes an all the more useless figure as the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where he was put to make bridges with the West for the purpose of squeezing Russia. In some places this had an effect, in other places it did not, but Makei anyway more and more turns from a queen into a dangling pawn. In the process of advancing forward towards integration, the former Ministry of Foreign Affairs becomes a burden and even a source of the threat of a plot for Lukashenko.
Thus, these three days changed the world. One more – not decisive and not the last – step, but for the first time a rather serious one on the way to recovering from the biggest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century – the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Russia and Belarus are in the vanguard of this process. Everything still happens with difficulty, each side understands responsibility for every step they make, mistrust will be shown in increased caution, but for the first time trust has surpassed mistrust. Common interest leads to common fate.
If no mistakes are made, and the negotiation experience and intuition of Vladimir Putin allows to count on this, the integration process will again amaze the world, which remembers that Russians harnesses the horse slowly but drive so quickly that nobody manages to understand what happened.
Putin makes a very powerful move – he already involves Lukashenko in the process of the joint foreign policy negotiations that Russia carries out with the largest countries of the world. This, even before the creation of all documents, in fact involves Lukashenko in the co-management of the Empire. This changes the scale of thinking of Lukashenko from parochial to imperial. A long way is still ahead, during which concrete mechanisms of interaction will be developed, but the foundation was laid.
Yes, there is a trail of mutual offences, Lukashenko already went rather far in the cultivation of soft power against Russia, but our diplomacy shouldn't be pushed towards a conflict with him up to severance. It is necessary to be a realist – Lukashenko is who he is, in many respects his phobias are omissions of the Russian diplomacy of that time, and Russia doesn't have any other partner in Belarus for negotiations.
If what is being done now was done two years prior to Crimea's reunification with Russia, it would have been succeeded to prevent many steps of Lukashenko, and the Union State, if the political will existed, would already be a reality. Therefore, there is no alternative to working with Lukashenko, but this work must be very delicate and competent.
If everything works out, grateful Russia will place a monument to Putin and Lukashenko on Red Square, near the monument to Minin and Pozharsky. Because what they are doing on collecting Russian lands is equal in its consequences to what these great predecessors did – they put an end to the Time of Troubles, from which Great Russia will again emerge in its historical borders.
And the West will only be able to drink valerian and write lampoons – their habitual occupation throughout the last millennia. Pride is a great sin, which the anti-Christ West forgot, revelling in the victory of the beginning of the 90's. But the victory was illusory – they didn't manage to keep it, as usual. Russia always at first loses territories, and then transforms a blitzkrieg into a dragged-out war that comes to an end in the capital of the aggressor.
"A preventive war against Russia is like committing suicide because of the fear of death. Don't hope that having once used the weakness of Russia, you will receive dividends eternally. Russians always come for their money. And when they will come – don't hope for Jesuit agreements signed with you, which allegedly justify you. They aren't worth the paper that they are written on".
This saying of Bismarck should be engraved with gold letters on the walls of the US Congress, near the portraits of their Masonic founding fathers of America. So then someone from over the ocean won't be excruciatingly painful because of aimlessly lived years.

The National Development Plan proposes to spend tens of billions of euro over the next seven years with no analysis of its effect on the environment, a seminar on sustainable development was told yesterday.
The seminar, organised by Comhar, the Sustainable Development Council, was told the national plan represented a missed opportunity to link economic expansion with sustainable development.
Attended by about 50 governmental and non-governmental organisations including the Irish Business and Employers Confederation (Ibec), the seminar was organised to form a contribution to the Government's forthcoming review of the National Sustainable Strategy.
But the seminar was told that through major investment in house and road building much of the development of the last seven years was clearly unsustainable. Many speakers said the National Development Plan had been rushed out as a separate strategy to that on sustainable development, which had been a mistake.
Environmental consultant Jack O'Sullivan said the seminar should pose the question: "why was unsustainable development so systemic in Ireland?"
Mr O'Sullivan said he had attended public meetings where planners had been furiously opposed by landowners over issues relating to planning permission, particularly where landowners simply wanted to sell sites.
He suggested that large-scale profits from property development were indicating to even small-scale landowners that they had a right to planning permission and their ownership of the land was the only criterion that mattered.
Similarly when new roads were planned, land along the route had often been "bought up" by people who were fortunate to know where the route would be, and the profits from this kind of speculation could even top importing drugs.
Vincent Salafia, who has campaigned against some road developments, said the State's previous development strategy had been " most unsustainable".
A number of speakers in the audience maintained the National Development Plan had been prepared without input from the environmental sector, while there was no real analysis of the environmental effects of this investment.
One woman maintained the economic sector was under-represented at yesterday's debates and she said it would have been interesting to hear its contribution. She was told a representative of Ibec was in attendance.
Other suggestions from the floor of the meeting were that the Government develop the forestry and fishery industries which were indigenous and sustainable but which were currently "a disaster".
A spokesman for Comhar said more then 4,000 invitations had gone out to governmental and non-governmental groups.
The conference would provide an opportunity for all groups to get their message to Government in time for the review of the strategy, which the spokesman said would happen in coming months.

Q: Improving the accuracy in number recognition in tesseract-ocr I recently started using tesseract-ocr with the help of sharp (a node.js image editor). In my algorithm a certain picture is supposed to get resized and cropped by sharp and get the content of the remaining picture recognized by tesseract-ocr. This must be happening two times in two separate parts of the picture, on the first part of the picture it recognizes the letters flawlessly so I will not post this part of the code, it is identical with the second one anyway, the problem lies with the second picture. It is supposed to read those two numbers in the pictures and all it does is read everything BUT those numbers.
const config = {
  lang: "eng",
  oem: 1,
  psm: 3,
}

let originalImage = `tmp_scrsht.jpg`;
let outputImagelevel = 'levelcropped.jpg'

sharp(originalImage).resize({ height: 1000 }).extract({ width : 300, height:250 , left: 5, top: 500}).threshold(230).toFile(outputImagelevel)
  .then(function(new_file_info) {
      tesseract.recognize(outputImagelevel, config)
      .then(text => {
        console.log(text)
        var newtext = text.split(' ') && text.split('\n')
        level = newtext[0];
        message.author.send(`number is: ${level}`);
      })
  })

The initial image gets resized and cropped in order to let tesseract be concentrated in the part of the image that interests me. Also, because I had no luck with just cropping, I read that if you put a threshold on the image with sharp, tesseract will be more effective in reading the picture, which makes sense as it converts the image pixels to either 255 or 0.
with all those filters involved, the final image tesseract is called to read is this:

As I said earlier, for some reason, in most of those pictures, it ignores the numbers and just reads everything else, in some pictures it works, on some it does not, there is no consistency or a pattern on which pictures it recognizes whatsoever.

A: Try to set tessedit_char_whitelist
From examples
const { createWorker } = require('tesseract.js');

const worker = createWorker();

(async () => {
  await worker.load();
  await worker.loadLanguage('eng');
  await worker.initialize('eng');
  await worker.setParameters({
    tessedit_char_whitelist: '0123456789',
  });
  const { data: { text } } = await worker.recognize('https://tesseract.projectnaptha.com/img/eng_bw.png');
  console.log(text);
  await worker.terminate();
})();

Minn. Woman Sues After Being Denied Emergency Contraception
Jan 31, 2020 Minn. Woman Sues After Being Denied Emergency Contraception
A Minnesota woman is suing two pharmacies after she was denied emergency contraception.
Andrea Anderson said she tried to get a prescription for the drug filled at a Thrifty White Pharmacy in McGregor, where she lives. The pharmacist turned her down, reported the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.
Anderson said the pharmacist told her he was not comfortable filling the prescription.
"I then realized what was happening," Anderson said. "He was refusing to fill my prescription for emergency contraception because he did not believe in it."
Anderson, a 39-year-old mother of five, was also turned away from a CVS in the town of Aitkin about 20 miles from her home. She was finally able to get the prescription filled at a drugstore 50 miles away.
Anderson's lawsuit, Anderson v. Grand St. Paul CVS, was filed on her behalf by Gender Justice, a St. Paul-based group. The legal action was filed in Aitkin County District Court and asserts that both pharmacies discriminated against Anderson on the basis of sex and that the pharmacies' refusal to give her the drug violates the Minnesota Human Rights Act.
Anderson said she received a prescription for an emergency contraceptive drug called Ella last year after the birth control she was using with her partner had failed. She said she did not want to have more children, and got a prescription for the drug from her health care provider.
At Thrifty White, she encountered George Badeaux, a pharmacist who also works as a pastor at a local church. Although Badeaux refused to fill the prescription, Matt Hutera, who owns the Thrifty White, said he has since informed Badeaux that he must fill all prescriptions given to him.
The pharmacist at the CVS has not been named. CVS, a national drug store chain, said its policy is to fill prescriptions for emergency contraception and it is looking into the matter.

Genocide in China
Parliamentary committee produces damning report
Report by the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee accuses China of genocide towards the Uyghurs in Xinjiang province. The report is entitled: Never Again: the UK's Responsibility to Act on Atrocities in Xinxiang and Beyond. It does not pull its punches. It is perhaps one of several events which are leading to a reappraisal of our relations with China. The previous Conservative administration was keen to see an improvement in our relations and with it, increases in trade and development. The treatment of the Uyghurs, the repression in Hong Kong, threats to the integrity of Taiwan and the poor behaviour in the early months of the Covid pandemic, is slowly forcing countries to think again.
The crimes being committed against the Uyghurs and other ethnic groups in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) are truly horrifying. The Chinese government is responsible for the mass detention of more than a million Uyghurs, for forcing them into industrial-scale forced labour programmes, and for attempting to wipe out Uyghur and Islamic culture in the region through forced sterilisation of women, destruction of cultural sites, and separation of children from families. It is altogether a gruesome picture and shocking behaviour from on the UN's Security Council members.
The Committee heard that under the guise of counter-terrorism, the Chinese government is committing mass atrocities and human rights abuses against the Uyghurs and other ethnic groups in Xinjiang. Reports include the use of forced labour programmes, arbitrary detention in internment camps, cultural erasure, systematic rape, forced sterilisations, separation of children from their families, and a high-technology surveillance system – all endorsed by the Chinese government's central leadership. Thousands of mosques have been demolished.
One element of the report relates to cotton. It is estimated that some 570,000 people are forced to work picking cotton 84% of which comes from Xinjiang. Satellite imagery shows the use of surveillance equipment, factories surrounded by barbed wire and watch towers. The report notes that 'virtually the entire' UK textile and clothing is linked to the abuses.
Virtually the entire UK textile and clothing industry is linked to the abuses in Xinjiang
The UK government has adopted a low profile in this matter although there are signs of a stiffening of attitudes. The Committee argues that guidance is insufficient and that 'stricter methods' are needed.
The problem for the public, many of whom are horrified by the stories emerging from Xinjiang, is that action is difficult. How does one know, when buying a cotton T shirt or blouse, whether it has Chinese cotton in it produced by Uyghur slaves? We have to rely on firms applying due diligence in their supply chains. Undoubtedly, some retailers will take this seriously – not just as a matter of morals but because of the risk of reputational damage – whereas others may not do so. A representative of the Ethical Trade Initiative (ETI) thought that voluntary action would not be enough for some retailers. We rely therefore on government to take the lead.
The government is financially supporting the Australian Strategic Policy Institute ASPI, which produces analysis of Chinese actions. A report on the Uyghurs is available here.

Good news / bad news time. First the bad: the Golden Sneeze has been napped from the museum of ancient history. Terrible, eh? Quite so, but fortunately, detective Hank is on the job, making the captivity of the perpetrator a simple matter of time. Provided you're able to gather enough clues, that is. Clues which will only be useful for that particular playthrough, as the villain in Detective Hank and the Golden Sneeze is… randomly chosen!
Needless to say, with several potential villains, there are also several – nine, in fact – different endings. Which ya get depends entirely on your wit. Or rather, choices made, clues found, interrogation methods, and so on. You know, detective stuff. Hopefully, all that hard work will eventually lead to a day in court, the recovery of said Golden Sneeze, and of course, a bad guy behind bars.
So trust no one in this visual 'whodunit' novel, as for all you know, even the most innocent, trustworthy person could be behind the theft. Heck, could even be the protagonist! Wait, that wouldn't make any sense… Right. Anyway, detective work awaits, and plenty of it too. So… help ensure that Hank will be remembered as the greatest detective ever, in Detective Hank and the Golden Sneeze!

Quiet Night in Porter
Quiet Night in Porter Recap
Night in Porter, and Meg Dooley comes out of the rain and breaks into the general store. She opens a case and takes out a derringer, and then starts as the owner Chad Winters comes in. Meg's sons Frank and Tom come in and tell Chad to get his hands off of their mother. When Chad goes for his gun, Tom guns him down. Meg drops the derringer and it goes off.
Later, Hoby, Ralph, and Doc Calhoun come over when they hear about the shooting. Hoby finds the discarded derringer on the floor, and Ralph says that Chad told him that he kept it loaded as a joke on Hoby. Calhoun finishes up and Hoby walks with him back to his office. The Ranger says that cheap items have been stolen from different places, and wonders why anyone would kill over it. Calhoun says that it could be some kind of senile dementia and Hoby goes to talk to Old Man Foster, who has been acting oddly for the last couple of years. Once Hoby leaves, Tom approaches Calhoun and says that Meg needs him.
Calhoun goes to Tom to the hotel room where the Dooleys are staying and the brothers tell him that Meg has been drifting off recently. The doctor says that he's been expecting it but is surprised that it happened without an emotional jolt. The Dooleys claim that nothing happened, and Calhoun deliberately drops the lift from a pillbox on the floor. He sees a pair of mud-covered shoes underneath the bed, picks up the lid, and tells them to leave him alone with Meg.
Once Tom and Frank leave, Calhoun checks the shoes again and then searches the room. He finally finds the stolen items that Hoby described earlier, picks up the shoes, and confronts the brothers. Calhoun asks why they lied, and shows them the stolen items. Tom says that they're going to take Meg to a doctor in Fort Worth. The doctor suggests that Meg may have killed Chad when he caught her. Tom insists that Meg wouldn't have killed anyone, and Calhoun figures that Meg found the loaded gun in the general store. When Chad found her, she shot him and went into shock. Calhoun tells them to fetch Hoby, and Tom insists that they'll figure Meg is crazy and lock her away. The brothers insist on taking care of Meg, and warns them that if one innocent person is involved then he'll tell Hoby. The Dooleys agree but Tom warns that he'll kill anyone that finds out about Meg's condition and Calhoun for telling them. Once Calhoun leaves, Tom and Frank start packing.
Calhoun is walking back to his office when Ralph says that Hoby wants him at the undertaker's. The doctor stops at his office first, unaware that Frank is watching him. He follows Calhoun to the undertaker's and confirms that Chad wasn't killed with a derringer slug. Hoby found the derringer slug in the counter, and Calhoun tells Hoby that he should talk to Tom and Frank. The doctor refuses to provide details, and the two men go to the Dooley room.
At the hotel, Frank intercepts Hoby and Calhoun in the hallway and holds the Ranger at gunpoint. He takes Hoby's gun Tom lets them in. He grabs Calhoun, but Frank tells him to stop. Hoby asks them which one shot Chad, and Tom says that Chad went for his gun first. The Ranger points out that they broke into Chad's store and that makes it murder, and Tom handcuffs him to the bed. Frank says that they're all going to leave Porter. He takes Calhoun to the livery stable to get a wagon while Tom watches Hoby.
As Frank and Calhoun walk down the street, Ralph comes over and asks Calhoun where Hoby is. He brought in Foster, who wants to go home and is raising a ruckus. Calhoun says that the Dooleys convinced Hoby that the Fosters are innocent, and Hoby is doing something with the Dooleys that Frank cooked up. Frank leads Calhoun away.
Once they get a wagon, Frank and Calhoun take it to the hotel and go up to the room. Hoby points out that the Dooleys will kill them anyway once they're out of Porter, and Frank insists that they're not killers. He frees Hoby from the bed and then handcuffs him to Calhoun. Tom checks on Meg and discovers that she's gone. Frank has Tom tear up the bedsheets and tie up Hoby and Calhoun, and they go to find Meg.
As the sun comes up, Hoby works his gag and bindings loose on the bedpost with Calhoun's help.
The brothers search all over town for Meg without success.
Hoby breaks the bed and frees himself and Calhoun, and they go to his office to get the extra keys for the handcuffs. The hallway door is locked and they go into Meg's room and down to the street. Tom and Frank see them, and Hoby runs into the rear of the saddle repair shop. The Dooleys don't fire for fear of waking up the town, and Hoby goes out the front to the general store. The Ranger grabs one of Chad's guns and loads it, while Meg comes out of the back room.
Tom and Frank run in and take cover, and watch as Meg steals a piece of jewelry. Her sons go over to her and Hoby orders them to surrender. They drop their guns rather than risk their mother being caught in the crossfire, and go to Meg. He tells them to go to his office and lets Meg keep the jewelry, and they go.
Once Hoby locks up the brothers, he asks Calhoun to find a woman who will take care of Meg until after the hearing. Ralph runs up and asks where Hoby has been, and tells him to go to bed nights and get some sleep. Calhoun agrees, and he and Hoby go to get some sleep.

The young man walked past the televisions on Quincy Street, averting his face for fear of seeing himself in the screens. He rounded a corner shaded by green lindens and littered by cigarette butts. Reminding himself of his plan, he headed onto Clinton, where he entered a tan, nondescript building. "Do you have sixth grade math?" said a man there, a man who was interviewing him.
"Yes," the young man replied. "I even finished high school." The young man scratched his face. The young man had long, blond hair, but the interviewer didn't seem to care.
The young man nodded. It was real, his name. Other things were false, like his avoiding of televisions, his lie about finishing high school, and what they taught about rain forests at school. The teachers didn't know how endangered the majestic rain forests really were, because the world was corrupt, evil. Joe glanced about. In the large office room, a myriad of tables and chairs stretched into a humming distance. He noticed the other young men and that they were black. They would all go to jobs on the south side, the interviewer had mentioned. Sweat beaded Joe's neck. Joe imagined the men shuttled to a desolate center, instead of working by a lake or in an office. Joe thought to protest their fates, but the interviewer's curt facial expression deterred him.
"How do you feel about a job on the Chicago railway?" the man said, flipping his clipboard.
Joe nodded. Joe nodded and nodded and tried not to think of the dark alley where he awoke that morning, confused and covered with blood from some bewildering other source. And there was the hubbub and the police—and the news-reporter with her camera—and Joe escaped. Did they know his name? Fear pattered Joe's chest.
Outside, the city blossomed into spring.
"So don't screw up," Joe replied. He wore a tool belt now. It fit snugly against his gray trousers.
"I just moved here," Joe replied. He had left the city's dark labyrinth of canyons. With his pay advance he took a small apartment in the quaint neighborhood near the yard. He tried to recall the look of the bed and walls, but blanked. In any case, he'd never be there, which was the point.
"Well, you're in for something different now," the conductor said.
With the cabin window open, the train horn blasted through Joe's skull at every crossing. The engineer sat in his seat to the right, at the controls, and Errol at his left. Joe sat behind Errol and watched the tablature Errol kept, a kabbalah of nomenclatures tracking grains, coal, or other shipment data depending on the day, rows which shifted each time they made deliveries at an industrial station along the Illinois corridor or when they reached a stop in the corn state. The cabin trapped heat.
"Want water?" Errol said. "It's hot as the Mojave Desert in here." He passed a canteen back to Joe.
Joe had forgotten his. He drank.
"The brakeman is the low man on the totem pole," the engineer said, opening his bag lunch that smelled of rank salami. "Watch and learn. So what do you want to be when you 'grow up'?" the engineer said, sneeringly.
"I want to work in a rain forest, and save something there," Joe said. Joe thought of his mother, back in the city, then tried not to. She wouldn't like the rain forest idea, just as she worried about other things he did.
The engineer burst out laughing. Maybe he was supposed to say he wanted the engineer's job, Joe thought.
With all this talk, Errol had fallen silent. Joe found this peculiar. Perhaps Errol didn't know what he wanted. The fireman wandered in back, and Joe wondered if he hoped for action, a streaming box fire to ignite the prairie.
Joe went outside the engine, scaling the edge. A drop-off station neared. The engineer complained he felt that the cars were bunching, pushing the engine. A brake line connecting cars failing. At least they'd be in station. A pinhole sun radiated. The wind ruffled Joe's tied-up hair. Blue and brown of field ran past. This wasn't an adventure film, he told himself. If he fell, the fall would be fifteen feet. Once he hopped off, he'd walk a mile or two of train length, spot the rupture. Replace hose or gasket, wrenching and elbow-greasing.
He could suture wounds; he could fix things.
"Where did you live, Joe? Before getting the apartment?" Errol asked in the third week of Joe's employ. They had just done some challenging couplings in the yard. Hanging outside the back train car, Joe orchestrated using hand signals to the fireman and engineer in the engine ahead. The engineer sped up or slowed down until the box cars behind locked, and Joe saw them knuckle together properly. Joe got off and connected hoses. Errol congratulated Joe on a dangerous job, well-performed. They were chit-chatting now inside the dank train.
Errol slapped Joe's shoulder. He didn't answer. "Mind taking over for me? Just check that these rows tally? I need to take a nap." He handed Joe the papers. And then he flopped on his fold-out, falling fast into a honking snore despite the irradiation of cabin noise.
Joe was the brakeman. Joe couldn't take naps, no matter how foggy his brain felt. A newspaper poked out from Errol's pillow. Joe startled; his blood froze. The heading bore the date May 8. The day of the alley—the day he was hired. Errol's pillow hid the remaining lines. Joe reached out, but an invisible hand stopped him. Panic throbbed his ears. He tried again. But he could not violate the sanctity of a man asleep. He stole away with only the tally sheet.
However, the next day, Joe felt the winds of their relationship change.
They were working in the yard. The sky bright blue. Trains rolled silently through the yard, headed for couplings. Silence meant danger and Joe kept alert as he moved about outside. A shipment fell off a forklift, crushing a worker. The man's leg stuck forth from the crate. Joe's crew gaped as bells rang and authorities came.
"You do?" Joe said, exhaling.
"I didn't know." Joe shook his head. His chest untightened.
Joe felt confused. Joe didn't know what he thought. Joe thought of his dad who left him and his mom, left when Joe was eight so they had to live above the tavern. But the conductor was his friend, he decided. Joe felt camaraderie for the first time since running through the city streets with his friends getting up to mischief.
"I promise I won't say anything," Joe said.
In late summer, they had a breakdown. The train ran to a halt in the middle of purple Iowa dusk. A failed brake had dragged and caught on a bend and then the brake box started alight, nothing Joe could have averted; but the engineer seemed cross with him as they investigated. The fireman started to contain the blaze. Joe sprinted out into dusk with his black flare-bag slung tight over his shoulder. After running well over a half mile, his throat bulged and sweat engulfed his ears. He kept running until his train had long vanished behind the bend, and then he stopped. Panting, he jerked open the pack. He pulled out a small square-shaped detonator, wrapped in red paper. He shakily placed the detonator onto the rail, tying it—neatly as possible—with two straps. He placed another detonator. A train clamored distant, in the same direction, and if the detonators didn't work, didn't go off under the train and make fantastic noise as designed, the train would barrel on and they'd collide.
But the charges went off when the locomotive passed, likely shaking the engineer from an end-of-shift torpor. He stopped and the incident ended calmly. Joe's crew spent the night in a cow town far from their usual stop. Errol—jokingly calling Joe "hero"—good job hero—joined Joe in his motel room, where the two drank rum and laughed, though they knew how hard the day would be.
Next shift the engineer gave Joe a hard stare. Management was investigating. Where had maintenance failed? Errol sided with Joe. In two days it was deemed simple wear-and-tear and Joe was cleared.
The engineer's rancor—persistent, despite the verdict—colored Joe's days. Joe double-shifted on another Iowa line. When being shuttled back, not working, Joe dozed off on-train for the first time, amid harsh rattling. Suddenly he saw old friends, his best friend Nick included. They ran in a street gang, nonviolent. They stole leather gloves from the black market, as they did in life, but in the dream the market stalls kept shifting, so the gloves were harder and harder to find. They stole bread from the corner grocer and worms hollowed out the bread. They hot-wired a stranger's purple boat of a car and returned it by nightfall, but the middle-aged owner waited on the dark curb, and knew their names. Now he saw the train's dark. No. Rotten spice and meat. The alley near Cicero street. He and Nick slept there that night. In half-sleep, Joe felt a slimy feeling, an alien hand moving under his shirt, his belt, lower, locking on flesh. His eyes flashed open. The concrete under his back. He saw a head with Medusa locks. A man glared down, greedy, crazed. The man's hand under Joe's clothing. The knife Joe clutched—that he'd slept with—thrust out and hit flesh. Fear knocked Joe unconscious.
Joe thought, I may have killed a man.
In September, the irritated engineer asked for a transfer. His replacement was a taciturn gentleman, but Joe and Errol tolerated him.
One unseasonably warm day in October, in Forest Park, Joe was working in the yard. The yard master blundered and assigned Joe's train, and that of his old engineer, who was incoming, to the same track. Shouting and waving, the yard master alerted Joe, but nearly too late. Joe jumped off the head engine and ran ahead. He got down on his left knee in the hard gravel to throw the lever, switch the track to the correct course. The lever would not budge. Sometimes switches got stuck. Grunting, he gave it all his might, feeling his forehead strain and eyes bulge with pressure. Why continue with this torture? he thought in a blur. The engineer had given Joe a bad report and affected Joe's pay raise, though Joe was in good standing otherwise. He imagined the engineer's eyes advancing. The engineer sneering, calling him "hippie" and "rain forest man." The engineer surely sweating, because he'd crossed the danger point and couldn't stop now. And Joe didn't have to throw the switch.
Joe threw the switch. The engineer safely passed.
The next day restlessness gnawed him. He had 15,000 dollars divided up between the Forest Park bank and his mattress. He hadn't been in contact with the past. He made calls. He found Nick's older brother, but not Nick. On the phone, Nick's brother told Joe about a job on the ore boats—they needed help for the last months of shipping on the Great Lakes, before the locks froze mid-January. Joe, muscled and tan, quit the railway. He said goodbye to Errol.
He went to the city, got off the commuter train downtown and walked toward a building on Monroe. He had an interview. The flat gray of Lake Michigan rose across the angled street. Amid cold steel-gray drizzle he considered his quiet mother waitressing at the steak restaurant, living in her apartment where she kept a marigold on the sill. He picked up a corner payphone. The tavern noise screeched into his mind; the brassy voices from the bar confused him. He heard the great swirling sounds of thick-headed, taunting gangsters and bosses, the ogres who haunted him in his room from below and caused him to never go back. He hung up the phone, having never dialed, and exited the booth. Rain slanted sideways, cutting into his jacket. He felt for something in his pocket, an item Nick's brother mailed after they discussed the ore boats. Something Joe found important at first, but later did not. It was a section of newspaper.
allegedly been out late frequenting the taverns.
and gesticulating and howling among the parked cars. The alley was investigated.
and when encountered, the urchin ran into the street and disappeared.
It was not possible to get photo or name identification.
received stitches at a nearby hospital. No one else was harmed.
The newspaper didn't matter. The newspaper didn't matter because Joe couldn't remember. There was only the black swelling void in the pit of his stomach. The article may well have been about somebody else—the person depicted seeming alien, unrecognizable. Joe glanced toward the harbor. There the boats awaited him.


This is a great gel eyeliner. At first it's a bit too soft but a few months after opening the consistency is just right. The staying power is just ok- I have allergies and by the end of the day, if I do a "wing" with this eyeliner my wing is always smeared. I think that a lot of eye products tend to smear or me more so than your average person though. Overall this is a good product. I prefer bobbi brown gel eyeliner over this because the staying power is better.
I am now on my second pot of Mac Fluidline. I've been using this product for about four years and will continue to buy it! I love the staying powder of this eyeliner. Even if I go swimming, it stays put! It doesn't irritate my eyes and applying it is easy. Also, the price is fair considering a pot of this stuff could last you up to a year.This is one of my holy grail products alongside Lancome Dual Finish, Benefit Watt's up and Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeshadow Primer Potion.
I love this! But it is my first gel eyeliner so I can't really compare it to others. Its super pigmented and really easy to apply (I use the MAC 209 brush). It just glides on easily and quickly so that even a novice like me can look great. Overall would definitely recommend. By the way if you have 6 empty MAC containers then you can hand it in and get a free lipstick.
I still stink at eyeliner. The first gel based one I owned was by Bobbi Brown and it intimated the heck out of me. A MAC artist flicked this on in an instant and had the gall to expect me to do the same on my other eye...I owe her big time for that torture. I hear gel liner is all the same but I've tried a drug store brand that others swear by and I prefer Fluidline for the texture. It's smooth and soft but firm enough to be controllable. At the end of the day my liner is as dark as when I put it on. And, it's a true black but not so black that old me looks ridiculous.
I've always used the same eyeliner for many years, HM dipliner. And after all these years i was now ready to try something new so I bought Mac fluidline and omg what a big mistake i did.. It smudges a lot on my eyelids and at the end of the day i did not have so much eyeliner left, it had disappeared in some strange way. The color is not black at all, more grey i would say and it covers badly, you have to put on more than one layer. The next day i tried to put on some transparent powder before i put on the eyeliner and that made it stay on a little longer so because of that and the cute little jar i give it 2 lipstick. The price is rather high because you need to buy a brush to apply the product with. It all ended with a return and a new eyeliner from HM.


SHHHH! The old man wants to sleep in this simple, errorless, touch and switch accessible activity. A great game to explore the use of two switches. Touch the door or press one switch to play music. Touch the bed or press the second switch to stop the 'noise'.


This site and the 600RR site are so slow to load I have to always wait between pages.
Why can't they be like the YZF600r page of my old bike? It is instant with no ads.
Go there and just start hitting topics and subjects and its super quick.
prolly because that site isnt corporate owned and thus not clogged up with ads.
If you use Firefox theres a few addons you can install to block most of the ads.
Quicker throttle? What is the fix?

Perhaps 7 or 8 have a beginning, middle, and end. As many as ten proved to go nowhere, and I don't expect them to turn into something.

I still value the time I spent making, and the existence of that list, and it has about 70 unused story ideas, some with potential.

Think you have an idea of what after-hours events at a professional conference typically are like? Does the phrase "evening reception" trigger images of a hotel ballroom and cheese cubes?
Well, get set to wake up your senses and shake up your expectations alongside the Detroit River on Opening Night of the PRSA 2008 International Conference. No ballroom. No cheese bits. No same-old.
Not long after workshops and master classes end on Sunday, October 26, it'll be party time from 7–9 p.m. in the GM Wintergarden — a five-story atrium in the company's Renaissance Center world headquarters complex, which also includes the Conference hotel.
This stunning location overlooks the Detroit River and Ambassador Bridge linking the city to its Canadian neighbor — Windsor, Ontario. Twinkling lights outline the span's graceful cables, enhancing the elegant backdrop for a sophisticated evening.
Distinctive sights are just the first "wow" of a party with the theme "Fire and Ice — Heating Things Up in the D." The mix includes the major label band Day26, stroll-around dining at food stations with Detroit-focused cuisine, and a club-like setting with lounge furniture. The event is being guest hosted by Detroit's own "Coco" — a comedienne and WJLB-FM personality.
More about the lineup: Season 4 of MTV's reality show Making the Band turned the five members of Day26 into Bad Boy Records artists signed by Sean ""Diddy"" Combs, the label's boss. Their debut CD came out in March and now the rising artists will share their soulful sounds with PRSA and PRSSA partygoers.
That's right, PRSSA Chapter members also can create points of connection at Opening Night. A low fee of $15 on top of their regular Conference registration lets future professionals attend the event for the first time in years — a chance to network and plug right into the Conference energy.
And while checking out the food, participants can learn about Detroit's culturally diverse population. Selections will feature traditional fare from the area's sizable Middle Eastern, Polish, Greek and Mexican communities — as well as "bumpy cake" and ice cream topped with hot fudge from Sanders Candy, a local institution dating back to 1875.
New connections and reconnections with professional contacts can extend past the riverside party, thanks to free shuttles to an "Afterflow" event for PRSA guests at the Ignite club in downtown's MGM Grand Detroit casino.
The Opening Night event is included in the full Conference registration package and can also be purchased as a separate event for any day or other Conference registrations through PRSA. For registration information, click here or call (800) 350-0111.
See you at "Fire and Ice" in the Wintergarden, where we'll change what you think you know about business conference receptions.

CluePoints announces U.S patent allowance for SMART Engine
CluePoints, a provider of Centralized Statistical Monitoring (CSM) solutions for clinical trials, has announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has granted a Notice of Allowance for Application No. 13/452,338, a patent which covers the company's SMART engine. The patent provides broad coverage for CluePoints' proprietary methodology that supports a risk-based approach to data monitoring in clinical trials.
The SMART engine is central to CluePoints' CSM solution, which uses statistical methodology to identify unexpected or unusual patterns in clinical trial databases. The approach uses a large number of statistical tests and scoring algorithms to identify investigative centers whose data are inconsistent with data from other centers taking part in the same trial. The newly patented method is proven to be sensitive to a wide-range of errors in data, including inaccuracies due to equipment mis-calibration, lack of staff training and non-adherence to a protocol, as well as data falsification and fabrication. As such, CluePoints' solution can support risk-based monitoring and quality assurance strategies, ensuring corrective measures and monitoring efforts are focused on errant sites efficiently, resulting in both reduced regulatory submission risk and costs.
"The Notice of Allowance covering the SMART engine strengthens CluePoints' position in delivering our unique methodology to the U.S market," said Franҫois Torche, CEO, CluePoints. "As a one-of-its-kind solution, the patent not only provides our clients with assurance that they are working with the only method of its type, but ensures that we are firmly at the forefront of CSM. We believe that the protection of our intellectual property through this patent puts the company in a valuable position to benefit from the rich promise of the solution within the risk-based-monitoring space."

About a month ago I shared some pretty big changes I made in the living room with a beautiful new sectional sofa and a new, improved layout of the space. As you know, our living and dining room are one, big open space, and you probably noticed that our big dining room table was no longer where it used to be! I've been waiting a few weeks to finish up some projects in the new dining room, and this week the sun finally came out and I was able to get it all photographed for you guys! Welcome to our new (okay… not really new, but on the other side of the room and much prettier!) dining room!
To give you a little bit of perspective, the dining room table now sits on the right side of the room, just off the kitchen (which makes way more sense… duh, Liz), and the living room and sofa are to the left. The table is still the same big, beautiful farmhouse table we built together as a family years ago (you can find the tutorial here), and the chairs and bench are still the same. But the big changes here are the mantel that used to be in the entryway and now sits on the back wall and the stunning wrought iron candle chandelier I hung over the table!
Let me talk about this chandelier for just a second. LOVE. You may not have noticed before, but one of the down sides of this big room is that there is no overhead lighting… none whatsoever. For most of the day there is more than enough sunshine coming in through the big windows in the living room, but at night we have to rely on lamps for light. I don't mind it because lamp light is so cozy, but not having a light fixture hung over the table has always bugged me in this house. It partially bugs me because sometimes you want a brighter light when you're working on something at the table, but it also just LOOKS so much better having a light fixture, filling the space and adding some character.
I didn't want to spend money adding electrical here right now, and let's be honest… I've moved our "dining room" to three different locations now since we've lived here, so it's probably not wise to do anything super permanent anyway. But I wanted to come up with something! I've had a semi-formed idea in my brain for a long time of some kind of DIY candle chandelier, but everything I came up with felt too rustic and bulky and distracting. And then I stumbled upon this Ava Wrought Iron Chandelier from a company called A Rustic Garden, and I was instantly smitten. They had plenty of different styles to choose from, and at just around $80, you can't beat the price for something this large and beautiful.
Shipping was pretty quick, and I like that you can choose the finish you want for your chandelier. They have solid color or vintage/distressed options, and I decided to go with the vintage white finish, which turned out beautiful. I could not be happier with this purchase!
I played quite a bit of musical furniture around here this winter, and the mantel I refinished ended up fitting perfectly on this little wall between the big picture window and the front door. I talked a little bit on my Instagram stories about how I really wanted this mirror from Anthropologie to go above the mantel, but I just couldn't bring myself to spend that kind of cash on a mirror. So instead I got creative and painted an old set of windows with Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint in a mixture of linen and marzipan to match the mantel, and I think it looks pretty cute for now. It didn't cost me a penny, and I repurposed something I already had sitting around the house!
I've had a growing collection of wood cutting boards for awhile now and needed a place to display some of these bigger guys. This back wall behind the table is a little bit of a challenge to decorate because it's such a long stretch of wall and the board and batten trim makes it kind of tricky to hang things. But the trim ended up being the perfect place to set a few of my cutting boards and use them as art on the wall. The boards bring so much warmth, shape and texture to this big white wall, and the candle chandelier hanging in front of them… so simple and stunning.
I cannot wait to decorate this space more for spring, and can you imagine how pretty it will be at Christmas time with stockings hung on the mantel and garlands draped on the chandelier? So much to look forward to for our new dining room!
Some links in this post are affiliate links, which allows me to make a small commission from your purchase, but your purchase price stays the same. Thank you for helping support our blog and keep it going!
This current place is the best choice for the dining area.
It looks more inviting with the chandelier and the mantel than jammed in the narrow hallway at the back door respectively far away from the kitchen where the dining area was at last.
Apropos chandelier don't you expect that the candles drop wax on the table if they burning quite awhile?!
I have a pair of those same windows.
Love the look. Thanks for sharing.
Very nice light fitting, your restrained style is to be emulated.
Love your new dinning room.
I love how white and green contrast with each other, makes such a beautiful scenario!


Sustainable development is today a key goal for all economic players.
We feel certain that eco-design makes it possible to combine creativity, recycling and a reduced environmental footprint, and so work tirelessly to conserve resources as far as possible.
Wood, water, electricity, oil, and other consumables... the design and manufacture of a stand requires many resources and, in addition to its financial cost, represents an environmental cost. Our teams will never scrimp on their creative energy or enthusiasm whilst creating your stand, but they will take care to ensure judicious use of resources and favour environmentally friendly practices.
To this end, we reuse materials as far as possible, and prevent waste by reusing stands whenever we can, repainting partitions, and recycling flooring not used by the public, etc.
We ensure that the wood used in our products comes from sustainably managed forests.
We are also dedicated to reprocessing all materials. We have special skips for sorting waste. Carpeting is recycled, chipboard is given a new life as panelling... and we pay particular attention to the elements found in the products we use, favouring the use of certified, water-based varnish and glue.
And to help us succeed in this goal, we rely on the services of a provider who carefully processes all of our waste.
Get in contact! for the environmentally friendly design of your stand.


We now offer discounts on group bookings of our walling courses.
However, book your group of 4 people or more on one of our walling courses you will be eligible for a £10 per person discount, bringing the cost down to £89 per student. Plus, every student still receives the course goodies (see above).


Our February customer of the month is Anita Allison.
Rob and Anita moved from Kansas City to Topeka in March 2017. Whenever they went to Rob's shop at Forbes Field, they would pass by the Bedsprings & Burlap store.
They finally stopped by during the open house in November 2017. That's when they met Jill and Denise and fell in love with everything in their store. That day Anita purchased many Christmas décor items and signed up for the upcoming Christmas Tree class.
Since then, Anita tries to attend as many classes as she can plus paint club each month. Anita is so grateful for what she has learned at B&B and the many new friends she has made. She can't wait to see what's next!

by Guest Editor
in Cinema, Editorial, Inspiration, News & Updates, Trending
Satyajit-ray
The 2nd of May this year marked the centenary of the Oscar award-winning Bengali motion-picture director, writer, music composer, and illustrator. His debut movie Pather Panchali is still a subject of discussion and deliberation for aspiring filmmakers.
His debut film "Pather Panchali" (1955) the first part of the Apu Trilogy, won best human document at Cannes. The Trilogy includes "Aparajito" (1956) and "Apur Sansar" (1959).
He also won a British Institute Fellowship in 1983 to go with the London Film Festival's Sutherland Trophy for "Apur Sansar." In 1987, the government of France made him a Commander of the Legion of Honor.
Satyajit Ray's movies won 26 National film awards for Direction, screenplay, feature film, etc, and finally, he was awarded Dadasaheb Phalke Award and the Bharat Ratna, the country's highest film and civilian awards respectively.
He revived the children's magazine Sandesh (which his grandfather had started in 1913) and edited it until his death in 1992. He has also written wonderful literary narratives such as "The Complete Adventures of Feluda", "The Incredible Adventures of Professor Shonku", "My Years with Apu: A Memoir", "Indigo" and others. His stories have been translated and published in Europe, the United States, and elsewhere.
Satyajit Ray inspired generations through his movies and writings and hopefully continues to do so. On his 100th Birth anniversary we recommend his top movies that you should not miss.

Competitive Stamina
thedailycoach.substack.com
Individuals and organizations with that "competitive stamina" gene never think they have done enough and anything.
12 Comment Share
"Your ego can become an obstacle to your work. If you start believing in your greatness, it is the death of your creativity." — Marina Abramović
Our society loves winners. We also love a great comeback story. Combine the words "comeback" and "winner," and instantly, we become inspired, galvanized, and motivated to replicate. We are emotionally captivated by the following narrative: A team or individual appears to be out of contention, then suddenly makes a miraculous recovery to win a championship. That ending is gold and perfect for beautiful Hollywood screenplays. The stories of immense resiliency, getting knocked down, facing long odds, and overcoming the naysayers to hoist the trophy are stories that warm our hearts; and then we use as teaching moments to share with our teams and organizations.
We tell our teams, "Look at the Washington Nationals, in Major League Baseball. They were 19-31 after the first 50 games. They improved focus, attention to detail, played together, and won the World Series—we can do the same if we play like a team." What we don't realize is the chances of "catching lightning in a bottle" are rather small. Duplicating the Nationals is damn near impossible. Yet we always use the one time winner as the example. The odds of repeating the Washington Nationals' formula are similar to selling a screenplay to Hollywood.
How come we never use the long-time winners and the teams that have built dynasties as our blueprint? Why? Because we never fall in love with dynasties. We never love the perennial winner in large part because we can never teach our followers how to develop "competitive stamina." We can all teach one time winning. What we all struggle with is managing and sustaining winning. Winning forever and constant competitive mastery.
Any team can win one time. Anyone can achieve great success one time. And for some, once might be enough. Individuals and organizations with that "competitive stamina" gene never think they have done enough and anything. They have no mantles in their homes or offices for any trophies. It's always about the next chance to compete, the next moment to win, and, most of all, the next opportunity to display domination and excellence. Winning never becomes boring; neither does preparing to succeed. The next game is always more prominent than the last win, regardless of who they are playing. Each contest is the biggest game of the year; each game gets the same amount of detailed attention. No one is ever satisfied.
What makes it even harder to develop "competitive stamina" is the world around us, which continually asks, how much is enough? Aren't you satisfied yet? Enjoy the winning, take time off, and relax. Folks asking these questions or making those suggestions, don't understand what drives people that hold the competitive stamina gene in the first place. They don't understand, the thrill is never in winning, but the chance to win again.
"Winning isn't everything; it's the only thing," is one of the most quoted lines from Coach Vince Lombardi. However, his most significant saying touches on "competitive stamina: "The greatest reward for doing is the opportunity to do more."
Let's all strive to do more while allowing the mastery of excellence to become a state of mind and our mantra for life!

Movie :: Rogue One Star Wars (2016)
Posted on December 20, 2016 May 26, 2020 by Anna Wong
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (or simply Rogue One) is a 2016 American epic space opera film directed by Gareth Edwards and written by Chris Weitz and Tony Gilroy, from a story by John Knoll and Gary Whitta. It is the first stand-alone film in the Star Wars Anthology series. Rogue One stars Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Ben Mendelsohn, Donnie Yen, Mads Mikkelsen, Alan Tudyk, Riz Ahmed, Jiang Wen and Forest Whitaker, and follows Jyn Erso, the daughter of the unwilling designer of the Galactic Empire's superweapon, the Death Star, and her quest to retrieve his plans for destroying it.
Produced by Lucasfilm and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, the film is chronologically set after the events of Revenge of the Sith and immediately before the events of A New Hope. Principal photography began at Elstree Studios near London during early August 2015 and wrapped in February 2016, with reshoots and additional filming taking place in mid-June 2016. Rogue One premiered in Los Angeles on December 10, 2016, and was released to the rest of the United States on December 16, 2016.
Research scientist Galen Erso is in hiding on Lah'mu when Imperial weapons developer Orson Krennic arrives to force Galen to return to work on the unfinished Death Star, a space station-based superweapon capable of destroying entire planets. Galen is taken into custody and his wife Lyra is killed in the ensuing confrontation, but their daughter Jyn escapes and is taken to safety by Rebel extremist Saw Gerrera.
Fifteen years later, pilot Bodhi Rook defects from the Empire, smuggling a holographic message from Galen to Gerrera on the moon of Jedha. Meanwhile, Jyn is freed from Imperial captivity by the Rebels on Wobani, who plan to use her to track down her father. However, General Draven orders Rebel intelligence officer Cassian Andor to kill Galen rather than extract him.
Jyn, Andor, and reprogrammed Imperial droid K-2SO travel to Jedha, where the Empire is mining Kyber crystals to power the superweapon; Gerrera and his partisans are engaged in an armed insurgency against them. With the aid of blind warrior Chirrut Îmwe and mercenary Baze Malbus, Jyn makes contact with Gerrera, who is holding Rook captive. Gerrera shows her the hologram in which her father explains that he has secretly compromised the Death Star's reactor design, directing them to find the plans at an Imperial high-security data bank on the planet Scarif.
Grand Moff Tarkin meets with Krennic on the Death Star and expresses skepticism about the project and its management. As a demonstration, Krennic uses a low-powered shot to destroy Jedha's capital and crush the insurgency, forcing Jyn and her group to flee while Gerrera elects to remain behind and die. Tarkin uses security breaches under Krennic's command as a pretext to take control of the project. Krennic meets with Darth Vader to seek his and Emperor Palpatine's support, but Vader dismisses his suggestions.
The Rebels track Galen to an Imperial research facility on the planet Eadu, where Cassian chooses not to assassinate Galen. Confronted by Krennic and his troops, Galen admits responsibility for the leaked information. A Rebel bombing raid begins before Jyn can attempt a rescue and Galen dies in his daughter's arms. The Rebels escape in a stolen Imperial cargo shuttle.
Jyn proposes a plan to steal the Death Star schematics from Scarif, but the Rebel council is split and cannot agree on a plan. Frustrated at their inaction, Jyn, Cassian, K-2SO, Îmwe, Malbus, Rook and several Rebels decide to use the stolen Imperial shuttle to raid the data bank. They arrive on Scarif where Jyn and Cassian disguise themselves as Imperial officers and search for the plans, while the other Rebels mount an attack on the resident Imperial garrison. Rook contacts the Rebel Alliance fleet which soon arrives to take down the shield surrounding the planet. K-2SO is destroyed holding off Stormtroopers, allowing Jyn and Cassian to retrieve the Death Star plans from the data vaults. Rook, Îmwe, Malbus, and most of the Rebel ground troops are killed in the battle. Krennic confronts Jyn, declaring the Empire's victory. Cassian shoots him, enabling Jyn to transmit the Death Star plans to the Rebel command ship. Tarkin fires the Death Star to destroy the compromised base. Krennic dies in the blast while Jyn and Cassian embrace before being killed by the ensuing shock wave.
As the Rebel fleet retreats, an Imperial fleet led by Vader arrives. He boards the Rebel command ship to retrieve the plans, only to watch a small starship escape with them. Aboard the fleeing ship, Princess Leia declares that the plans will provide hope for the Rebellion.
